S.U.C.A by Robert Ramirez

This routine is a picture-perfect lesson in framing. By this, we mean that Rob Ramirez has taken an extremely basic move--the multiple shift--and "framed" it with a compelling, funny, and realistic presentation on cutting the Aces. He shares not only the finesse points on controlling four Aces, but also all four of his dynamic Ace revelations. Of course, you can use any Ace revelations once the cards have been controlled.

The real value in "SUCA" (Stand-up Cutting Aces) is in the format, and the way Rob skirts the line of realism and super-human skill. This sort of presentational style should be something we aspire to: conversational yet exciting. You can do "SUCA" with any deck handed to you, on the spot.

Running Time: 25 minutes
